2 Eagle Student Athletes and Parents, Welcome to the TWMS Eagles Athletics school year! It is with great joy that we welcome you, as we look forward to the opportunity to guide and coach you through your athletic endeavors this year. Our Athletics program places great value on the wellness of the whole person: spiritual, social, mental, physical, and emotional. It is our goal to instill in our athletes the foundational elements necessary to lead healthy, productive, and successful lives. Indeed, we believe that school athletics can provide life-long benefits to individuals, including a greater sense of purpose in one s self, developing positive and strong work ethic, enhanced self-esteem and self-confidence, opportunities to balance leadership with humility, enriched social interaction skills, and the lasting benefits of making healthy lifestyle choices. Thank you for choosing to be a TWMS Eagle Athlete! We are excited to get started and look forward to a successful year. Sincerely, TWMS Athletics Department

4 Our Mission Athletics at The Woodlands Methodist School serves to advance the overall mission of our church; Win people to Jesus Christ, Disciple them in faith, and help those in need. We are also founded on the mission of our school; To provide a joyful, Christian education through which children develop a lifelong love of learning, pursue excellence, and positively impact the world. In harmony with these missions it is our purpose as an Athletics department to foster Christ centered relationships with our team and our opponents through the avenue of sports. Through Athletics and its innate challenges, we have a powerful tool to reach students in valuable ways including their spiritual, social, mental, physical, and emotional health. Through these components we instill in our athletes foundational elements necessary to lead healthy, productive, and successful lives.
5 Our Values Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path. Psalm 119:105 We believe in following the word of God, striving to glorify him in everything we do. The following are character qualities we seek to build in our students through TWMS Athletics. Control Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one receives the prize? So run that you may obtain it. Every athlete exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable. So I do not run aimlessly; I do not box as one beating the air. But I discipline my body and keep it under control, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified. 1 Corinthians We can handle any situation. We maintain our self control. We focus on God s purpose for our lives. We compose ourselves in a godly manner. Determination Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous! Do not tremble or be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go. Joshua 1:9 We show courage in all that we do. We do not hang our head in defeat. We play every moment to achieve our best. Faith Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1 The Lord is in control. We Believe!
6 Humility For through the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think; but to think so as to have sound judgement, as God has allotted to each measure of faith. Romans 12:3 God is responsible for our abilities and successes. We humble ourselves and give thanks to our Lord. Integrity Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men. Colossians 3:23 We are honest. We play by the rules. Love Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who doesn't love does not know God, because God is love. In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him. In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. 1 John 4:7-10 We care about our teammates, coaches, referees and our opponent. Respect Be devoted to one another in brotherly love; give preference to one another in honor. Romans 12:10 We are punctual and prepared. We show respect to everyone. Spirit Serve the Lord with gladness; Come before Him with joyful singing. Psalm 100:2 We have positive attitudes. We have fun. Stamina Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us,
7 fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:1-2 We keep our eyes fixed on higher goals. We never quit. Strength I can do all things through Him who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13 We do not rely on ourselves alone. We make strong our weaknesses. Teamwork And all those who had believed were together and had all things in common. Acts 2:44 We are committed to each other. We encourage one another. Trust In God I have put my trust, I shall not be afraid. What can man do to me? Psalm 56:11 We believe in each other.
8 Eagle Athletics Practice So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. 1 Corinthians 10:31 Athletics practice will take place each school day from 2:55-4:15pm. Athletes will be given 15 minutes to change, eat and hydrate. Official practice will begin at 3:10pm.

In order to keep our Athletes safe and healthy during practice we require: 1. Athletes bring healthy nutrition to fuel their body before practice. 2. Athletes bring a filled, non-disposable, water bottle to each practice in order to stay hydrated. ii. We recommend: 1. Athletes do not over exert or over-commit themselves during the season with additional sports or activities. Practicing each day will require plenty of rest for muscle recovery.

17 Leaving a Team While we work hard to teach and instill a love and appreciation for each sport, we also understand that there may be a time where an athlete tries a new sport that just doesn t suit them well. While our coaches will continue to engage and pursue the athlete to stick with the sport, if the situation comes to a point where the athlete, parent, and coach agree it is not suitable situation, here are some courses of action we can take: 1. The athlete may join the PE Program. 2. The athlete may join another sport as long as they have not yet had their first competition. Athletic Fee In order to participate in a specific sport, Athletes must be registered through our website by the first practice. At the time of registration an athletic fee will be paid to offset the cost of the program. This fee is non-refundable. Certain sports may require or highly recommend purchase of team or sport specific gear at an additional cost. Medical Medical Release and Physical Evaluation forms must be complete and on file with the school nurse prior to competing or practicing with TWMS Athletics. Please also inform the Athletic Director and/or the Head Coach with any medical concerns prior to the start of the first practice. While we do not have Athletics specific medical personnel or trainers, at least one of the coaches supervising each practice is certified in CPR/First Aid. The safety and health of all Eagle Athletes is our number one priority. The more information we have about the athlete and his/her physical state, the better we can manage his/her overall health during athletics. Parents, please keep the lines of
18 communication open throughout the season with your child s coach, the Athletic Director, and our School Nurses. Athletes please let coaches know if you ever feel in pain, discomfort, or simply out of sorts. It takes all of us being proactive to ensure the safety and good health of Eagle Athletes. Issue Resolution 1. As part of our Athletics program one of our goals is to instill in our athletes a sense of ownership and responsibility for their actions. It is important that athletes learn necessary communication skills and how to resolve conflicts in a God-honoring way. a. Player - Player Conflict - Most issues can be solved between players, but athletes can always request a coach to help mediate and facilitate a healthy solution. b. Player Behavioral Issues - In most cases player behavioral issues can be corrected between the coach and player. For excessive issues parents will be called for a conference. 2. Parent/Coach Relationship - The relationship between Athlete, Coach, and Parent is an extremely important one. In order to foster positive relationships communication is extremely important. Certain issues may be appropriate to discuss with the coach while others should not, or may be expressed to the Athletic Director to maintain good relationships with the team and the coach. a. Appropriate Issues to discuss with the coach: i. The treatment of your child mentally, physically, emotionally etc. ii. Ways to help your child improve iii. Concerns about your child's behavior iv. Any health or medical concerns b. Issues not appropriate to discuss with your coach, if necessary you are welcome to bring these to the attention of the Athletic Director i. Playing time ii. Team strategies
19 iii. Play calling iv. Other athletes hour rule - We do ask that if you have a concern or issue with a competition you allow 24 hours before contacting the coach or athletic director. Attempting to voice your concerns directly after a contest creates an environment that is not conducive to resolution. The 24 hour rule will allow time for reflection as well as the emotionalism to ebb so that rational, fact-oriented discussions can take place at an appropriate time and place. Athlete Code of Conduct Philippians 1:27 - Whatever happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ. Athletes are to conduct themselves in such a way to be pleasing to the Lord at all times whether on the court/field/track, in a class, in their dress and in their daily life. Speech: Proverbs 16:23 A wise man s heart guides his mouth, and his lips promote instruction. 1. Choose your words and your timing wisely. Questionable language or slang words will not be tolerated. Athletes will never engage in any language that can be termed trash talking or profanity. Example: In basketball, chanting air-ball or screaming while the opponent is on the free-throw line shows poor sportsmanship. 2. Athletes will address the coaches and officials with respect. The athlete will address the coach as Coach or Mr., Miss or Mrs. and will take concerns or complaints directly to him/her. Insubordination and divisive speech or behavior will not be tolerated. The athlete will address officials as Sir or Ma am.
20 3. Never criticize the officials or coaches. Coaches and officials represent the authority figure. Obedience to authority is not optional and is not predicated on whether or not you agree with it. Relationships : John 15:12 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. 1. Develop good relationships and a good rapport with teammates and coaches. God has placed you in this situation for a purpose. You have an opportunity to develop life- long friendships. If sports become all about you, you need not participate. 2.

Develop unity with our school family. God has called each one of us to this school. Each of us has different responsibilities, abilities and roles. Never be jealous or envious of someone else s role. Be busy fulfilling your role. 3. Develop unity within the Kingdom. We must establish our philosophy with other schools in order for our ultimate purpose to be met to further the Kingdom of God. It will take other Christian schools being successful. Pray for them as you pray for The Woodlands Methodist School.

Strive for victory in order to glorify God. 3. Demonste Christ in our lives by abiding by the rules of the game in letter and in spirit. Unfair or unethical tactics will not be tolerated. 4. Committed to excellence. Be committed to excellence in all areas: faith, practice, academics and game preparation. Commit your works to the Lord, and your thoughts will be established. Proverbs 16:3 Behavior : I John 2:6 Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did. 1. Athletes will maintain a good reputation. The athlete s character will be in good standing with the administration, faculty and staff. 2. Athletes will refrain from the use of profanity, suggestive or threatening language. 3.

He/she will adhere to the strictest interpretations of the school dress code and the team dress and uniform code while at school and at school functions and competitions. 9. Athletes will demonstrate Christ-like character. Both in and out of the arena showing respect in speech and in actions for game officials, opponents, and all those associated with our opponents. 10.Athletes will never engage in fighting. The athlete will maintain self-control at all times. Unsportsmanlike conduct, penalties and technical fouls will not be tolerated. 11.The athlete will know and understand our philosophy. The athlete will respect the eternal effects of their speech and actions as they represent themselves, their families, their school, their church and ultimately their Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Athlete Agreement: The Athlete must accept the Athlete Agreement upon registering for a sport in order to participate. It reads: I have read and will comply with the policies and procedures set forth in The Woodlands Methodist School s Athletics Handbook. I understand the great responsibility I will be undertaking as a Student-Athlete and the high expectations that coincide. I will strive daily to uphold the Athlete Code of Conduct to the best of my abilities. I am committed to Eagle Athletics. Parent Code of Conduct Speech: Proverbs 16:23 A wise man s heart guides his mouth, and his lips promote instruction. 1. Choose your words and your timing wisely. Questionable language or slang words will not be tolerated. Anything negative or insulting must be avoided. 2. Be positive and encouraging. Lift your student and others up. Let them know they are important. Let them know the importance of being a member of a team.
23 3. Never criticize the officials or coaches. They are representatives of authority. This is a great opportunity to teach your child how to respect a person in authority. Insist that your child address the coaches and officials with respect. 4. Never be involved in negative cheering or chants. 5. Never speak negatively around the students or other parents about: The School Negativity can be contagious. Instead, create an atmosphere of gratitude. Other students or parents Speak to parents only about your students and their students. Speak to other students only in an encouraging manner. The only time another student or parent s name will be mentioned is in a genuine complimentary fashion. 6. Never criticize your child s teammates. Remember to teach your child team attitude. 7. If necessary, resolve differences with your coaches out of sight and earshot of students and other parents. Call to set an appointment to speak with the coach or the athletic director privately. Pray about what you will say and what is motivating your discussion. Remember the 24 hour rule. Relationships: John 15:12 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. 1. Develop relationships and a good rapport with team and coaches. God has placed you in this situation for a purpose. You have an opportunity to minister and be an encouragement to others. If sports becomes all about you and your student, you need not participate. 2. Develop relationships and a good rapport with other parents. You will need their prayers and support as much as they will need yours. 3. Develop relationships and a good rapport with parents from other schools. Never miss an opportunity to share Jesus Christ with others. Promote your school and
24 your students. The relationships you develop are a reflection on our ministry as a Church and School. 4. Develop relationships with the coaches. Get to know the coaches. Pray for them. Communicate with them with an open heart and mind. Be open and honest. Unity: I Corinthians 12:12 For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ. 1. Develop unity within our school family. God has called each one of us to this school. Each of us has different roles and abilities. Never be jealous or envious of someone else s role. Be busy fulfilling your role. Your example of being a unified school body is a valuable lesson for your students to learn. 2. Develop unity within the Kingdom. We must establish our philosophy with other schools in order for our ultimate purpose to be met to further the Kingdom of God. It will take other Christian schools being successful. Pray for them as you pray for our school. Motives : I Corinthians 10:31...whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. 1. Be motivated by the love of God. Live for Him because He gave His life for us. 2. Teach your students to abide by the rules of the game in letter and in spirit. 3. Use your child s experience as a chance to be involved in his or her life. Your relationship with your child as an adult will last longer than your relationship with them while they are in your home. If you want a relationship with them as adults you need to begin building that relationship now. Athletics affords you that opportunity.
25 Behavior : I John 2:6 Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did. 1. Maintain class and character. You are setting the example for your children. Realize that your every action reflects upon you, your family, TWMS and, ultimately, you re Lord. 2. Always insist that your children follow instructions. Coaches must depend on a player s ability to follow orders immediately and without question. Questions will be raised at the appropriate time, such as at practice or after a game. 3. Be an example. Set the standard high for behavior and appearance. 4. Working with the officials...not working the officials. Badgering an official to persuade a call our way comes with too high a price a loss of our testimony and our ability to influence those others for Jesus Christ. There is never a time at any contest where a parent is afforded an opportunity to say anything to an official other than Thank You. 5. Remain in the stands. Socially visiting with the coach briefly after a game is welcome. Game officials are off-limits. 6. Be modest in victory and gracious in defeat. Coaches, students, parents, and spectators will need to be strong in this area. Shake hands with our visitors before and after the game. 7. Recognize the success of your opponent. Compliment the good play of students from the other school. Congratulate their coaches on a well-coached game. 8. Teach your children that they have a special purpose from God. It is their responsibility to accept God s purpose for them. Do not compare or contrast them to others. This limits their ability to fulfill their own unique potential and purpose. 9. Have fun, touch lives, and be yourself. You have the opportunity to be a positive influence, like no one else may be able to, in the lives of your children and their peers. Games, plays and officials will be forgotten, but your behavior and attitude will stay with your child forever.
